Gott in himmel!

I see that the German user has done the opposite of what I suggested and that the bottom plane of the dovetail appears to bisect the leadscrew hole.

I wonder how many Hobbymat users fit a Multifix toolpost?

Heh, just goes to prove this IS a fragile part, not a great feat of engineering perhaps.

I can now see the clamps I'm going to make, although low profile they are not, and can't really see how it would be possible to make low profile.

I was impressed by the simplicity of Nicholas Farr's suggestion.
